We had the good fortune of connecting with Sylvia Brownlee and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Sylvia, how has your perspective on work-life balance evolved over time?
This is a question I get asked quite often and most would say I don’t have work life balance, Actually in 2022 I’ve gotten a lot better. Having a team is what helps most with work life balance, you cant do it all on your own and you have to understand that. I can say that I try to make Sundays my day where I really disconnect, but honestly it typically happens on Saturdays.

What should our readers know about your business?
I’ve been in business since 2015, when i first started in skincare I did a little of everything from eyelashes. facials, waxing, microblading, trying to find my way, but along along I told myself my passion is skincare and that’s where I wanted to focus, but not just skincare acne and hyperpigmentation because it hit home. Dealing with acne and dark spots can hit hard on a woman’s confidence and self esteem, and tha’ts the goal of Skin by Brownlee & Co. Once I started to focus in on my passion the brand started to move in the right direction.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
We would definitely go to OTR is Sugar 513 which has great dining options- Pep & Delores is one of my favs and maybe pop in to Nostalgia for some great music and wine/champagne, they have a great outdoor patio. There’s also some great locally owned boutiques we would have to pop in to as well, Beautiful, the native one, and so many others, the great part is you can get it all done in one location and if you have a sweet tooth there is a locally owned cookie spot that’s only open Friday and Saturday that is dangerously addictive.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would like to thank all my clients for trusting me with their skincare needs. You get one face and skin is the largest organ in our bodies, this is a journey we go on together.
